I, like so many here, got addicted by that drug we so lovingly call SU!!!! It was a "party" and I had no idea what it was really about. Went to hang out with my friend whom I hadn't seen in a long time and I bought and booked a party. Just like that!!!! I have since moved and have no stamping friends now. Need to get out and find me some! I still feel like a beginner but love making all my own cards. I have never scrapbooked but might one day!

My niece was an SU demonstrator and invited me to a workshop. The rest is history. I helped send her 3 kids to college and now my next door neighbor and friend share my studio and we each purchase stamps, supplies, etc. and combine them.

I wanted to make something for my mum's 70th so I joined a scrapbook site and bought cardstock, tools etc and made the album. When I'd finished the album I had all this stash that cost me a lot of money so I was encouraged to make cards by online friends and I've never looked back - I love cardmaking and my stash is constantly growing! )

I always have been crafty (sewing, knitting, crochet and needlepoint), AND THEN WE MOVED FROM MINNESOTA TO WISCONSIN!!!!! A freind was have a gathering of women and I was invited (they all are wxperienced stampers and scrapbookers). They said oh come on, just try. Well I fought it every step of the way, kicking and screaming. I can't do this,I don't know how - you get the picture - long story short, after about 5 hours I had created the worst card in the history of cardmaking - it still makes me laugh when I pull it out to look at. Then the SU demo showed up, and like many of you $$$$$$$$ later, I'm hooked. Actually that same demo just e-mailed me yesterday thanking me for my 2 new recent orders, telling me I had turned into an addict, and did she need to disable my shop now button. While scrapbooking is still not my thing, I love everything cardmaking, much to my DH misery.
